To the Linton Family,
The Stuart Family has many fond memories of your Dad. Our families spent many vacations together camping in the Adirondacks and many visits to each other homes over the years. I especially remember visiting the homestead in Barre and enjoying the warm hospitality of Frank and Cecil. Your father was a wonderful man and a true gentleman. May he rest in peace.

To Cynthia , Lucille and famlies, I was sorry to hear of Frank's passing. I came to know Frank through association at Groton Pond. Many a times we would visit when I saw him getting his mail at camp, or at the Association meetings. He came across to me as a friendly, gentle and kind man, who reminded me a lot of my own Dad. I know how much he loved camp and watching the loons.
You were blessed to have him in your lives for so many years. God be with you in your time of loss.

I remember Frank from AOT in the 70's and 80's - he was always smiling and I don't think he ever had a bad day. My sincere condolences to his family members.
